I am continuing getting calls from our tenants saying there septic is blocked- the overflow comes out of the air vent from the spetic pipes just out side of the house.

I have attached a very very basic drawing of what the pipe looks like.. im not sure why there is a bend (i have marked on the drawing as blockage), can I just take the pipe out and have an elbow without having that up and down in the pipe.

I doubt I have explained this clearly.. Ill just see how it goes!! Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Share

I would bet anything there is something stuck in the elbow of the pipe work!!!! Who’s been flushing what?

I’d get rid of the elbow if you can.

But one of the guys should be able to tell you.
